Lamine Yamal just keeps going from strength to strength.
After a stellar season in which he helped Barcelona win the LaLiga title and the Copa del Rey, the 18-year-old was handed the club's prestigious number 10 jersey, once worn by Lionel Messi.
And Yamal wasted no time in living up to the hype with a virtuoso performance in Thursday's pre-season friendly with FC Seoul.
The Spain international almost opened the scoring in the 8th minute, only for his shot to bounce back off the post into Robert Lewandowski's path for a tap-in.
😜 No one expected Yamal to use the post in his assist for Lewandowski. Barça 1-0 up against Seoul!

But Yamal soon did get on the scoresheet with a great low strike which just crept into the corner.

It's only pre-season, but he's already looking very sharp indeed.
